Hidey-ho, boys and girls! Since I've been absent for so long, I'll waste no time giving you the goods.
- Austin journalist Omar Gallaga (possibly better known to you as OmarG of Television Without Pity Smallville recap fame)has recently done an article on using coupon sites and other web sources to save money on groceries. Scroll to the bottom of the article to find a good list of links to appease your frugal soul.
- Relatedly, the same Omar just finished hosting a live chat with coupon expert Rochelle Hamby of divagirlsdeals.com. She answers questions on gaming the coupon system and getting the most for your many, many (too many) grocery dollars, and lists even more coupon and bargain resources.
- Still on the topic of the Food Problem, Kris over at Cheap Healthy Good recently (okay, practically a month ago; but I've been meaning to blog it ever since) posted on How 60 Minutes a Week Can Save Hundreds of Dollars on Food, with even more stellar advice on getting the most bang for your coupon-buck, and be sure to catch her follow-up post on Eating Healthy While Clipping Coupons: The Dos & Don'ts.
- Finally, in these belt-tightening times it's just as important--and also as much of a challenge--to save on fuel for your vehicle as is is fuel for your body. Freeshipping.org can help out with that by providing free shipping coupons to over 750 retailers, making it make that much more sense to save your gas, stay home and shop online.
That's all I've got. Unless you also want excuses as to where the hay I've been for the last month. I don't really have any of those, either. I just felt a little burned out on blogging--especially on blogging-for-hire--so I put this blog on the back burner while I decided whether or not I wanted to continue it. And the decision I reached is that, indeed, I do.
So although, like with my other blog, posting will remain a little sporadic while I try to finish the rough draft of my novel, I will be posting here again. And I will try my very hardest not to let it descend into all rants about our nightmare house non-hunt (which is a whole 'nother post), although as things currently stand, that certainly is tempting.
It's good to be back!Labels: bargains, coupons, food problem, link roundup, meta, personal |
